Comment on New to printing, not sure how to diagnose issues

lots of things going on here but my initial feel is your printhead is too close to the surface and is scraping the surface of the plastic instead of dropping it
time to work on that first layer smoothness, its the bane of us all but once you get it right, it is a major milestone

The fact that you can peel layers makes me think it’s under extrusion ( increase flow rate 2% ) or temperature ( increase temp 5 degrees). If better but not quite right, increase and try again. It’s a pain but it’s best to only change one at a time.
And dry filament is always important.
